BBC funding cut by £2 billion.

[fillyboy]

I remember all the jollies, the parties the wasted money and hit and miss programming which seemed to begin back in the 90's and has become endemic in the culture.

More money does not give more scope or better production. What it does is give more salary to a narrow band of people. Consider the millions paid to Lineker, who just presents a sports programme, and actually adds no value - the same person BTW who is one of the most vocal in not cutting the the BBC's cash cow - I wonder why that might be?

I remember them for protecting a known paedophile for 30 years.

how many people voted ?

How about 'relative majority' then?

"A majority can be compared to a plurality, which is a subset larger than any other subset but not necessarily larger than all other subsets combined".

Go on then, look up 'plurality'.

Educate us, is it whoever gets the least votes wins?

No. But as a consolation prize, they get the chance to moan about the result for umpteen subsequent years.

Not true.

His politics is flawed as he is a blinkered old Tory. He's sharp enough in the building game though.

Boris Brexit Johnson, lol.

"Rishi Sunak, Britain’s chancellor, has led a cabinet pushback against calls from culture secretary Nadine Dorries for an end to the BBC licence fee from 2027.

UK government insiders said that Sunak had told Dorries that there had not been proper cabinet discussion on whether the licence fee should ultimately be replaced, a view echoed by colleagues."
